Custom Level Review Game

[Joemon]

I've downloaded this pack and been trying to pass 'Buildo Station' but I can never reach the exit on time :O

Then you're doing it wrong.

A hint:

Try setting the release rate to 75-80 immediately, and never changing it from that.

I figured that out. Did you manage to pass?

[namida]

Of course. I can even do it with one builder left over.

[Joemon]

You going to review?

[namida]

...I can't review my own levels. >_>

[Joemon]

...I can't review my own levels. >_>

Forgot it was one of your levels sorry

[namida]

Did you manage to beat it yet?

Another hint:

Don't try anything too complicated. The solution is actually very simple once you get the trick I mentioned in the last post. Also, there is a reason for the unusual number of lemmings in the level, and if you're trying it the right way, you'll notice the reason very quickly.

Once this pack, and the other two in the queue (Joemon's and IS's) are done, I'd like some feedback on the second LP DOS demo...

And come onnn... someone review the next level pleeeaseeee...

[Joemon]

Yes, someone review 'Buildo Station'

[Dullstar]

Has anyone passed Buildo yet?

[Yawg]

Yeah, I did it awhile ago. Nothing intellectually challenging, just a whole lot of frustrating pinpoint clicking, and a finger on the pause button.

And a lot of resets.

Theres really nothing to review; its a concept level, and the concept is pretty simple. Could use more decoration, and it could have been made a lot more interesting if more lemmings were included. The player would then be forced to make adjustments to the release rate during the building process in order to minimize losses. As it stand, you just pop it to 85 and click 25 times. Yawn.

Yes there is: a level. You review a level by posting an image and the level stats, and stating (at least) one good point and one bad. If there is nothing to say in one or the other category, say that. By going to that tiny bit of effort -- very tiny in comparison to what it sounds like you went through to actually complete the level -- you make this topic so much more interesting for those of us who are reading it and haven't played the levels (and those who may not remember what a particular level is like, if they come back to the topic a long time afterwards).

I'm sorry my review wasn't visually appealing enough for you. I had 5 minutes before I had to run out the door, and I figured I'd do this thread a favor and give it a kick-start; something nobody else seemed to want to do. If you don't like my review, I'd be happy to delete it if someone else wants to redo it. Perhaps instead of jumping into threads and criticizing people who are trying to keep them alive, you could contribute yourself.

That pretty much WAS a review, Proxima. It just lacked the normal review layout.

So the next one to do then, is Bullet Lemming.
I'll remind you once again: If your version has 12 builders, you have the OLD version of Bullet Lemming. The new one only gives you 11 builders (everything else is the same however, so rather than redownloading, just make sure you have at least one builder left over).

[Joemon]

We are getting there then

[namida]

Oh come on... is it THAT hard? =P
